Doesn't work because the Survivor's camera is unaffected. The only things that counter DS is dribbling, let them bleed out, and pick them up and melee after about a second so that your input will eat their DS input.
Or we can all wait until the next patch around September/October when this cancer perk will finally get nerfed.

How to counter DS : Hope devs realise this stuff is neither fun or balanced and manage to get a proper rework for it.

funny how it takes them so long to fix something when they already know now its a problem.

Hatch stand offs aren't fun and we all know how that turned out
Hatch stand offs aren't even a thing unless a stubborn duo makes it one. The way the DS mechanic works with the general flow of the current metagame makes this a worse issue by far.

It's not getting nerfed in the patch update btw
No. They said it will get nerfed in the next update AFTER the mid-chapter patch. I.E. around September/October. Learn how to read, please.

So all in all, they knew years ago that it was a problem when it was released, and only now do they start acknowledging it as a problem.
and we still have to wait months before they ACTUALLY decide to do something, because on that 1½ year + months, they havent come up with a good way to nerf it.
i guess moving fast isnt a thing these developers are known for.
and lets couple it with the fact that every person needs to get hooked 3 times to even die. so.. to kill all as the killer you need to:
catch people 16 times if all of them run DS and hook them, all the while it takes like 70 seconds to repair 1 generator. a game is over sometimes in 6-7 minutes so please..can someone do the math here. sometimes a chase alone can be 30 seconds long. lets factor in that you have to find survivors too... and then drag them to the hook.. and waste time being stunned when DS kicks in.
yea i dont see it. i dont see how the generator repair speed coupled with an entire team with DS, can even remotely be fair towards the killer.
while this is a Decisive strike thread, i would like to point out that generators really need to be repaired slower. much slower. i mean my god, you have to be really outclassed to even lose as a survivor. and after that you still have that nifty hatch you can use. why dont the developers just give all survivors knives while we're at it.
i mean for a game where the one killer is supposed to be the big bad guy to merit being alone versus 4, he sure holds very little actual power.

Oh yes devs, don’t waste time on bugs please remove DS first that’s the biggest issue the game has right now
Lol my thoughts exactly

Spinning in a circle does nothing, dribbling is far more effective.

Only dribbling and The Clown with Enduring and Flask of Bleach add on can effectively counter DS. Toss down a bottle and let them use it. They will get about 2-3 meters at best.0

Enduring on Clown plus throwing a tonic down as you pick them up does a great job of coming the absolute closest to hard countering DS. But unfortunately you can't do it to the non-obsession that has DS.

ds is very buggy though it's not perfect.

A few counters is that some spots if you position yourself right even if you're hit by ds the survivor cannot drop. Another small counter is letting them fall into the basement when they ds you then get them as they're running out easy pz. I dont know all the spots, you'll have to find themselves.

Well, it actually is for Killers. I know, i know, it´s hard to understand as survivor, but killer issues don´t get solved in 2 days like survivor issues.

There is no counter. You, as Killer, have no way to stop the Survivor from stunning you. No way to stop it from triggering. You can mitigate its effects by using certain perks, but you can't counter it any more than you can counter Sprint Burst.

I play a good mix of both, and have issues with both sides, but DS is really not in my top issues.
As a survivor I don’t run DS anywayThat annoying kid that clicks non stop with his flashlight and tries to get your attention, because he knows he has DS and can waste 3-4 gens worth of time is not a top issue?
Okay then... i take it you don´t play on high ranks.

Go for the weaker one first and you know the cocky clicker will come be a hero, why chase what will willingly come to you.
DS can indeed by annoying and can cost you a kill or even a game but it’s really not in my top issues with this game at all.
I don’t see what purpose having a counter to things serves apart from rendering them useless in the first place.
Each side has has something to moan about and no matter what changes are made the opposing side will not like it, that what happens when you can’t please 100% of people.
Killers say say they have it hard, survivors say they have it hard, it’s a never ending cycle of my dog is blacker than your dog.

No because I don’t give them the play they want, I’m certainly not going to be chasing someone for 3-4 gens either that’s just self inflicted stupidity.

What if the "weakest chain" also has DS? Or if all have DS and know how to loop, since looping is so brain dead easy.

I’ve played games where they all have DS and flashlights and looping till Christmas, but normallly in games like that no ones doing gens because they are to busy comparing dick sizes. Sandbagging each other because they can’t all loop at the same time.
Then ultimately end up farming the hell out of each other too.
Sure I’ve had crap games where I’m destroyed by loopers, DS and flashlights, but I’ve also had games where there DS and looping failed to get them out alive.
You think it someone’s already faced it, but not to the point that it’s an auto loose as soon as I see a potential DS.
